The Double or more Life of the Fake Heiress (Mirabella) novel Chapter 967

At school.

Mirabella couldn't help but notice that Lisa seemed off today. Her usual spark was missing, and she looked paler than usual. Setting her book aside, Mirabella reached out and gently took Lisa's wrist.

Lisa, lost in her thoughts, snapped back to reality at Mirabella's touch. She looked up just as Mirabella was pulling her hand away.

"What's got you so worried at such a young age?" Mirabella asked, tilting her head slightly.

Lisa paused for a moment before touching her cheek. "Is it that obvious?"

Mirabella propped her chin on her hand, clearly uninterested in answering.

Lisa's eyes lingered on Mirabella's face, studying her intently. How could she warn her to steer clear of Emmitt? Her half-brother Emmitt wasn't really into women, but the people he took an interest in always seemed to vanish without a trace.

Recalling something unsettling she had stumbled upon once, Lisa pressed her fingers weakly against her forehead. She couldn't figure out what Ben was up to yesterday since he had never directly confronted Mira.

After a moment of silence, Lisa finally lowered her hand and looked at Mirabella. "Hey, um... the neighborhood's been kinda sketchy lately. You don't live on campus, so please be careful when you go home, okay?"

Mirabella raised an eyebrow, a playful tone in her voice. "Is that what's been bothering you all this time?"

Lately, it seemed like everyone was warning her about safety.

Locking eyes with Mirabella, Lisa felt as if she could see right through her. She coughed and added softly, "Just be careful, okay? And don't talk to strangers."

Mirabella glanced at Lisa for a moment, then, without further questions, went back to her book.
